Haveron takes note of the conversation, but in the end his decision is the same.  "Set up camp here.  We are bound to have trials over the next several days.  This place is as good as any to rest up in preparation.  Leave the tablets in place for now.  If we want one later, then we can consider them after our task has been completed.

Amelia has a point.  We have already had friction during our travels, Gareth.  It will only get worse if no one in the group even acknowledges your presence, because of the magic in the tablet.  If we get to that point, let it be for more natural reasons."

Haveron can't resist a bit of a smirk after making that last comment, although he does try to say it with a straight face.

In reply to Haveron Stormwal (msg # 624):

Noticing the smirk, Gareth cannot help reply.

"On the contrary, if no one notices me, I suspect thing will run much smoother. Perhaps I need a ring or coat with this spell on it..."

In reply to Gareth (msg # 625):

Carrying such a thing might clear s path for you, or make it harder for attackers to approach you, but the same holds for tradesman, food sellers and the like. Archers will have no problem  though, and youbwill have no onr to shield you.

Haveron will set the watch schedule as they prepare to camp for the night.  It seems the tablet discussion has been completed, and everyone has had a chance to look around.

OOC We'll go with the same watch schedule as before, in the interest of moving things along.

Haveron Amelia
Ryujin Gareth
Adept Shroud
Omar Burke

As long as no one else has any RP to add, I think we can move along.

In reply to Haveron Stormwal (msg # 627):

OOC: Yep, ready to move along. Just playing to his social skill Narrator!

OOC: All set here to camp for the night. 

Yessss ready

I be ready!

In reply to Ryojin (msg # 631):

The night is eerily  quiet. Close to dawn there are a number of coughing roars similar to that of the triger, but they are far from the treeline.

In the morning, Haveron takes charge of camp, as he frequently does.  He'll ask Burke and Shroud to scout their path ahead for maybe 100 yards, to make sure they are on the right path.  The rest of the group will break camp, handle breakfast, and prepare for the travel ahead.

Omar is already packed for the morning, since he has the last watch.  As they are going about the morning's business, he comments "I have never seen it so quiet at night.  Not even in Al Menir."

In reply to Omar El Nasib (msg # 634):

Gareth creates some meals from the wood of the trees, and passes it around.

[Private to GM: Create food, rolled 4 times but will do more if asked. 14, 9, 6 and 10 under.]

Ryojin would have woken up early to practice and meditates before consuming some food and helping out breaking camp.

Shroud sits through his watch quietly.  He neither makes a large effort to talk nor does he ignore his companion should the cleric want to talk.  The scout seems indifferent to conversation.



OOC:
Shroud has a dislike for personal hygiene so being a few days from town where he got a bath he's likely beginning to smell a bit ripe, if you get close enough.

Shroud isnt anti social he's just a bit like Spock from Star Treak.  He doesnt talk for the pleasure of it.

Bechazruhk spends his time pacing back and forth around the camp.  He knows he shouldn't speak, lest he wake his comrades or draw the attention of beasts, but he cannot resist the urge once or twice.  He wanders near Omar, leans in and hisses with irritation.  ”Hear that??!!”  The man replies negatively.  Burke throws up his hands.  ”Exactly!  Not a peep.  I mean, I know these woods is weird.  Wizards house or daemon prison or such, but aint no chirp, squawk nor chitter.”



OOC:
Burke understands that this place is out of the ordinary but as someone who has a deep love of wilderness he's a bit unnerved by the lack of it.

In the morning Burke will spend no less than 30 minutes performing his prayers, chants and rituals which involve cleaning up 'the wild'.  He will tend to broken/damaged plants.  Plant seeds.  Etc.

Regardless of the taste Burke happily eats the food made from trees.

The Adept waves away the proffered food with thanks but eats what he brought, which appears to be mostly dried meat.

In reply to Adept Yisslitheniss (msg # 639):

While Ryojin is doing his forms, he espies an odd looking mound at the base of one of the trees.

Once he has finished his forms and balanced his chi for the day he moves over and inspects the mound. Seeing nothing of note he attempts to sit on it.


ooc: Per rolled, failed by 2.

[Private to GM:

18:26, Today: Ryojin rolled 12 using 3d6.  Per. failed by 2]

Berry takes the proffered food, all to happy to not have to create the food herself.

In reply to Berry (msg # 642):

Noticing Ryojin looking  at something, Gareth goes to offer him food.

"Have something to eat. What is it?"

[Private to GM: Rolled 4 under perception]

Haveron walks over to see what's going on after he notices Gareth also approaching Ryojin.

In reply to Haveron Stormwal (msg # 644):

Per rolls at +2

In reply to Narrator (msg # 645):

Another? Last was 4 under...

Berry looks over in the direction of the responsible people.
[Private to GM: 20:40, Today: Berry rolled 9 using 3d6.  Berry Per+2. By 6]

The adept notices the gathering building....


[Private to GM:  19:04, Today: Adept Yisslitheniss rolled 11 using 3d6.  Perception. by 3]
